A musical association
Jul. 31st, 2008 08:24 amI usually have the radio in my office tuned to a classical station at a low volume during the day. Every now and then a piece I particularly like will cause me to turn it up a bit. Beethoven's 7th symphony is one of those. It's just one of my favorite pieces of music.
Beethoven's 6th is another one, though it's also one that I seem to have permanantly associated with the 'going home' scene from Soylent Green:

Annoyingly, the owner of that video doesn't allow it to be embedded in lj.
While the movie itself isn't the greatest ever made, it's still one of my favorites. That scene in particular always has an effect upon me. There's just something about the mixture of beauty and sadness in it that'll grab me every time I see it.
Of course, I'm writhing this because the 6th just played on the radio.
